Abstract: Objective To evaluate the validity and reliability of Chinese version of Parent Behavior Inventory (PBI) among parents of preschool children. Methods PBI was translated and administered with Family Environment Scale-Chinese Version (FES-CV) in the investigation of parents of 148 preschool children in Shanghai.Validities and reliabilities of PBI were evaluated using standard psychometric analyses.Results Each item of Chinese version of PBI was significantly correlated with the subscale it belongs to (P<0.01).The supportive/engaged subscale of PBI was correlated with the cohesion,expressiveness,intellectual-cultural orientation,active-recreational orientation,organization,and control dimensions of FES-CV,while the hostile/coercive subscale of PBI was correlated with the conflict dimension of FES-CV.The construct validity was also confirmed by factor analysis with 55.698% variance explained by two factors.Cronbach's alpha coefficients of PBI and its subscales of supportive/engaged and hostile/coercive were 0.672,0.807 and 0.652 respectively.The test-retest reliability coefficients of supportive/engaged subscale and hostile/coercive subscale were 0.964 (P<0.01) and 0.986 (P<0.01). 【Conclusions】 Chinese version of PBI has acceptable validities and reliabilities in the parents of preschool children in Shanghai,and some items may need to be revised according to the Chinese culture so as to be applied in further related studies.

摘要： 目的 检验中文版父母行为问卷(Parent Behavior Inventory,PBI)在我国儿童早期的父母中应用的效度和信度。方法 采用经过翻译的中文版PBI和家庭环境量表中文版对上海市148名学龄前儿童父母进行评估,对测定结果进行效度和信度分析。结果 量表各条目得分与其所属分量表得分均存在显著相关性(P<0.01);父母行为问卷的支持/参与维度与家庭环境量表的亲密度、情感表达、知识性、娱乐性、组织性和控制性存在显著正相关,敌意/强制维度与家庭环境量表的矛盾性存在显著正相关;结构效度方面,因子分析得到特征值>1的2个公因子,方差累计贡献率为55.698%。父母行为问卷及其支持/参与、敌意/强制维度的Cronbach's α系数分别为0.672、0.807和0.652,支持/参与和敌意/强制维度的重测信度分别为0.964(P<0.01)和0.986(P<0.01)。 结论 中文版父母行为问卷在上海市学龄前儿童父母中的初步应用具有比较适当的效度和信度,个别条目需要根据社会文化特点进行修订,以便用于父母教养方式和儿童心理行为等方面的研究。
